GM to Open IT Innovation Center in Georgia

Third of four Information Technology Innovation
Centers will employ about 1,000

ROSWELL, GA--Jan. 10, 2013: General Motors will hire
approximately 1,000 high-tech workers to staff a new Information Technology
Innovation Center near Atlanta. The
automaker needs software developers, project managers, database experts,
business analysts and other IT professionals for the third of four centers
in the United States.

"Locating this center in Atlanta makes
good business sense," said GM Chief Information Officer Randy Mott. "We can draw from a deep pool of high
tech expertise through the surrounding colleges, universities and talent
residing in the area."

GM already has hired more than 700 IT specialists to work at the
Innovation Centers in Austin, Tex., and
Warren, Mich. Response in the market has
been strong as three of four candidates offered jobs to date have accepted
them.

The Atlanta Innovation Center will be located in Roswell, a northern suburb of Atlanta.

"This Innovation Center is exactly the kind of employer we want in the
state," said Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal. "The information age will be with us
for a long time, and attracting companies such as GM that are on the
cutting edge of manufacturing and technology is a huge win for Georgia."

Mott is leading a rebalancing of information technology at GM under
which the majority of IT work will be done by GM employees instead of being
outsourced, which has been the GM model for most of the last three
decades.

"We look to the Innovation Centers to design and deliver IT that drives
down the cost of ongoing operations while continuously increasing the level
and speed at which innovative products and services are available to GM
customers," Mott said. "The IT Innovation Centers are critical to our
overall GM business strategy and IT transformation."

The location of the fourth site will be announced at a later date.
